The rider of the white horse who came forth from the first seal in Revelation 6:2 is now revealed for who he is. The man of peace and diplomacy is in reality the second person of Satan's trinity of Evil. Satan has always desired to be God and be worshipped. He will accomplish his demonic desires through his trinity of evil. Satan becomes the father. The beast out of the sea becomes the son, and the beast out of the land becomes as the Holy Spirit. The beast rises out of the sea of humanity (Revelation 13:15), the waters of multitudes of people(Revelation 17:15), so he is a Gentile and not a Jewish person. Gabriel also declared that in Daniel 9:26 when he said, "the people of the prince that shall come will destroy the city and the sanctuary." The people who came and destroyed the city of Jerusalem in 70 AD were Romans, so that would also declare the prince to be a Gentile. This beast then, that rises up out of the sea of humanity, is the little horn of Daniel 7:8, also called "the prince that shall come" (Daniel 9:26), "the abomination of desolation" (Matthew 24:15), "the man of sin, the son of perdition" (II Thessalonians 2:3) and "Wicked one" (II Thessalonians 2:8), and the Antichrist of I John 4:3. This Antichrist is described as having seven heads and ten horns. Chapter 17 tells us that the seven heads are seven mountains and since Rome is built upon seven hills this is probably a reference to that great city. These seven heads are also referred to as seven kings. The ten crowns on the ten horns are the ten-nation confederacy that will make up the revived Roman Empire. It is the ten toes of the final Gentile world empire described by God in Daniel 2:42&43, and the beast of Daniel 7:7, 23&24. The beast is described as being like a leopard and bear and a lion. These are the same pictures of the kingdoms from Daniel 7. He has the name of blasphemy, and he gets his power, and his throne and his great worldwide authority from Satan, the dragon. The throne that he takes from the dragon is in the Holy of Holies of the Temple, and he declares that he is God. (Matthew 24:15 & II Thessalonians 2:4) The worldwide religious system is now in place, and the world worships Satan and the Antichrist during the final three and a half years of the Tribulation period. In Verse 11 we are introduced to the third person of the trinity of evil. He has two horns like a lamb and speaks like the dragon. He has no crowns, so he is not a political authority. He is a false prophet. He comes up out of the land as opposed to the sea, so is probably a Jewish person. This false prophet demands that everyone worship the Antichrist. He makes an image of the Antichrist, as Nebuchadnezzar did of himself in Daniel 2, and he gives life to the image. Anyone who will not worship this image is put to death. In order to control the world population, the Antichrist puts into effect a powerful economic policy. Everyone in the world must receive a mark on their right hand, or on their forehead in order to do any business in the world. If a person does not have this mark, they cannot buy or sell anything. It is the number of the Antichrist and the number of man - 666. In Revelation 20:4 we are told that no believer could worship the beast or receive his mark. The alternative was to be beheaded. Many of God's saints, who became believers after the Rapture, will be slaughtered for refusing to submit to the demands of the Antichrist.
